New York Attorney General Letitia James has filed a lawsuit against the federal government over cuts to the Affordable Care Act. Joined by 20 states, the lawsuit argues that changes to the ACA marketplace create barriers to healthcare access, potentially stripping coverage from two million individuals. The rule limits enrollment windows, restricts automatic reenrollment, and introduces burdensome verification steps. James asserts the rule disproportionately affects low-income and working-class populations. The changes could increase healthcare costs and eliminate coverage for gender-affirming care, despite the government's claim of reducing waste and saving money.
Letitia James stated that the new rule will disproportionately impact low-income and working-class people, whom the ACA is designed to help, creating significant barriers to healthcare access.
The lawsuit seeks to block an illegal and dangerous rule change that strips working families of their health care coverage and imposes unnecessary red tape.
